surfing at Bondi

Posted by DarkElf (Perth, Australia) on 20 March 2009 in Lifestyle & Culture.

hello! I am back after spending the best part of last week restoring my computer back to normal...

just an easy shot to return with... a common sight at Bondi Beach in Sydney - the surfers attack local waters in anticipation of some decent waves... I was lucky to have a beautiful weather that day...

welcome to my photoblog and thanks for visiting... my aim is to learn photography and share my experiences with you, not only through my attempts at photography, but also through showing different aspects of the world that have caught my interest over the time that i have been walking this planet... hope you enjoy the journey with me...
